Hi. I have given my baby mmr+opv vaccine on saturday and from sunday morning I was on medrol 16 mg which is a steroid for 3 days ime till tuesday. Is there any chance of me getting infected as I was in close contact with my baby. I heard that when we are on medrol we shouldn't come in contact with mmr+opv vaccinated person's.but I was in close contact with my baby. I am asking about me getting infected and not baby. And how can I know if I got infected. please reply .tia. I have stopped medrol after 3 days.

Hi, if you are on a short course of steroid for 3-7 days, then no problem if you come in contact with opv.

Hi, do not worry shory course of steroid will not have any side effect or will not cause infection to you and your baby. So just relaxes.

Dear User, No it is very unlikely, even if your baby has sneezed on you or near you. It should not be a problem and no need to worry about getting infected. If you found my answer helpful, please leave a like/ thanks. Thank you.
